Achensee and Karwendel
Achensee and Karwendel - unforgettable holidays at Lake Achensee and in the so-called “Silver Region Karwendel”.
The holiday area Achensee and Karwendel and its chief city Schwaz have been characterised for centuries by mining and those times are still alive in the tourist mine in the periphery of Schwaz. The journey into the silver mine starts with an 800 m train ride down into the “Sigmund” tunnel. During the day the city enchants you with fascinating historical buildings and a pleasant pedestrian zone.
Surrounded by the wild romantic Karwendel mountain chain, there are the resorts Stans, Jenbach - just to name a few - and the villages around Lake Achensee. The offer in this area is wide and includes a navigation on Lake Achensee. In cold months, you can choose between the slopes on the Rofan mountain or the family skiing area Kellerjoch or you go cross-country skiing in the cross-country eldorado around Lake Achensee…
